Hello all, I would like to propose a new tag for a bird hide:
leisure=bird_hide (the building=* key is for areas rather than nodes) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bird_hide sums it up as: "a shelter, often camouflaged, that is used to observe wildlife, especially birds, at close quarters." which "resembles a garden shed, with small openings, shutters, or windows built into at least one side to enable observation." Birdwatching is a very popular leisure activity, and being able to find hides could be useful. I would think of this as a node, which could render as a pair of binoculars, probably only at zoom=18 This icon from http://www.nps.gov/hfc/carto/map-symbols.htm works for me: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Image:Binocs-b-on-w.png or http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Image:Binocs-w-on-b.png I have created a draft proposal page on the wiki: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/bird_hide Follow ups to the talk page there please! cheers, LT _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
